I woke up and yawned rather unflatteringly and stretched my arms out at my sides and paused when I felt another body next to me. For a split second I felt like screaming until the body moved and fell on top of mine, the muscular arm wrapping around my waist and I turned to see Andrew’s face nestled into the crook of my neck and shoulder.

He had this smirk on his face, and I knew he was actually awake and just trying to see how much he could touch me before I pulled him off; which wasn’t going to be much.

“Get off, get off, and get off.” I said as I shoved his arm off my waist, he groaned a little and fell onto his back next to me before turning his head to look at me and grinning lazily.

“Good morning to you too Addie.” I wanted so badly to wipe that smirk off his face, but I knew I couldn’t, I was too busy ogling at the way his eyes lit up, the way his hair was messed up; god I wanted to run my hands through it.

“We have to get up, we’ve got uni today you oaf.” I said as I felt a burst of confidence from somewhere deep inside me.

“You know we have enough time to go out for a nice run, want to come with me?”

I debated on whether or not I should go with him. Glancing at my clock I realised we had about an hour left before we had to leave, and besides, I could take a ride with him. Making my decision I looked back at him and realised he had gotten off the bed and was now standing with his back to me and stretching his arms, the muscles in his back rippling and I wondered how it’d feel to touch him.

“I’ll come with you, but you’re dropping me off.” I said with a tone of finality and hopped out of bed shaking my head.

I promised him I’d give him a chance, and we’d both agreed to taking things slowly, but already I could feel the animal inside of me scratching to get out and run to him, but I held her back and walked towards my closet with every intention to grab my workout clothes, but was held back when arms wrapped around my waist and hot breath fanned against my neck.

“You don’t need those clothes, we’re going wolf.”

That simple statement had the beast inside me yipping in excitement, and in turn I began smiling at the thought of getting to run again. It had been a while since I’d shifted into my wolf, far too long. Ever since I’d begun seeing those other wolves in the bushes I hadn’t dared to shift again, afraid that they’d hurt me.

He kissed my neck before pulling away abruptly and I heard a creak before a gust of wind blew inside my room. Andrew was crouched at my windowsill with a mischievous look on his face before he winked and fell forwards. I screamed and rushed to see if he was hurt and scowled when he grinned at me, nodding for me to do the same.

Nervously I perched myself onto the windowsill and sat on the wood, dangling my legs over the side and watching him. It’s simple, just push off and land, nothing to be scared of. Besides, if I fall or hurt myself, Andrew will be there to help me. I chanted the same thing into my head over and over and yet I still couldn’t do it.
